Family Tour of Kenya

(9 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis)
Nairobi, Maasai Mara, Mount Kenya

This tour is great for family members of all ages interested in combining time in the city with two safari experiences in two of Kenya’s most renowned game parks.

Begin in Nairobi, Kenya’s bustling capital city. During private touring, visit the Sheldrick elephant orphanage, which is run by a charitable organization that helps save the lives of orphaned elephants and rhinos and is active in community outreach and anti-poaching programs. Also visit the Karen Blixen House, where the writer of Out of Africa lived, and the Giraffe Centre to learn about and feed endangered Rothschild’s giraffes. Other touring options around Nairobi include visiting Nairobi National Park—the park is known for its population of black and white rhinos—to go on a game drive, participating in philanthropic activities and visiting local museums and crafts galleries.

Continue to a resort high on the slopes of Mount Kenya, the second-highest mountain in Africa. One day, enjoy a game drive in nearby Ol Pejeta Conservancy, an important sanctuary for critically endangered rhinos and endangered Grevy’s zebras, as well as the Big Five. Also visit a renowned chimpanzee sanctuary that’s the only place in Kenya to see endangered chimps in the wild. During leisure time, choose from activities such as swimming, golf, mountain biking, horseback riding and walking safaris.

Conclude your tour at a private conservancy bordering Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya’s most legendary safari destination. Maasai Mara is famed for its stunning scenery and abundance of wildlife, as well as for being one of the places (besides the Serengeti in Tanzania) where one may witness the annual great wildebeest migration. During exciting and informative game drives, look for members of the Big Five: lions, buffaloes, elephants and leopards. Cheetahs, zebras, Maasai giraffes, ostriches, hippos, crocodiles, and numerous antelope species are also seen frequently. Upon request, private charter flights and additional activities such as walking safaris, hot air balloon rides, local village visits, local school visits, special meals in the bush, philanthropic activities, and more can be arranged.

Return to Nairobi, where you will have access to a day room and then be assisted to your international flight.
